Sadly "Miss Scarlet" is looking for a new home due to a change in my personal circumstances. She's too good to use as a daily drive and keeping a car just as a "toy" isn't an option for me right now.

I bought her last October. the photos with her original F plate on were taken in the first few weeks of ownership. the recent pictures show her with our private plate which is NOT included.

I keep her under a dust cover in a heated and dehumidified garage and a with a battery conditioner connected.

The bodywork is very nice in Signal Red. just a few little marks which are hardly noticeable. the leading edge of the bonnet has a very small patch where I think the paint has reacted to the metal beneath but again it is hardly noticeable. Ideally the rear quarter bumpers need replacing or rechroming as there is a little corrosion appearing. I'm being really nit-picky here as the car looks stunning even with these imperfections which most people don't even notice.

Before I bought her I looked at a lot of other SL's but when I saw her I knew this was the one! The 300SL is more of a Driver's car than the larger engined variants and more economical too. and being one of the last R107 models made she has ABS. better handling. the smoothest autobox. nbsp;and better build quality than earlier ones - believe me this is a SOLID feeling car with the roof up or down. no wonder MB engineers called these cars "Panzerwagens"!

She comes with matching hardtop and storage stand for it. and the soft top was replaced just before I bought her so is as new.

The interior is in very good order in black Sportcloth/leatherette. There is a proper rear seat with belts. but only really suitable for kids or adults on short journeys!

Excellent radio/CD by Sony with fully working automatic electric aerial.

Tax and Test October - only advisory on last MOT was wear or pitting to one brake disc.

Lots of history. very well maintained.

I have priced her sensibly and hope she goes to someone who will continue to give her the love she deserves!

I will deliver for fuel costs and return fare. collection by buyer preferred though - I will happily meet you at train station or Gloucestershire Airport.

Cash on collection or direct bank transfer please.

Any questions please contact me through Ebay. please check my feedback and you will see I don't mess people around or misdescribe things.

Paul.
